There is more honor in following
this class of labor than in the gov
ernment department when you
don't pay your debts. 1t is this class
of men who meet their obliga-
tons, while, in majority of cas-
es, the government employe is
more or less in debt. This class
OF labor is often looked upon as
inferior, but we have always found
it advisable to be in the din
ing room than to steal, There
are many walters to day, who only
receive from $18 to $40 per
month, can show more money and
live better than many government

REPUBLICANS ORGANIZING.

A large number of gentlemen
met last week in the "Johnson
annex" to the Arlington Hotel,
for the purpose oforganizing a per-
manent Republican club at the
National capital. The session was
attended by many representative
citizens, the greatest enthusiasm
prevailed, and the success of the
Republican party. it's principles
and candidates, was the wish OF all.
The meeting was simply for form
ing temporary organization, and
with this in view, Mr.. w. w. Dan
| enhower was elected president, Mr.
Patrick O'Farrell secretary, and
Mr.. j. FL. Howell treasurer.
Mr.. William A. Cooks motion to
appoint a committee to draft a con-
stitution and by laws was adopted.
The chair appointed Messrs Will
liam A. Cook, DR.. E.. A. Adams,
| ex-senator Fowler, D. A. Windsor,
Thomas A. Gardiner, Simon Wolf,
DR.. Purvis, Smith Wormley and
Fred. Douglass. On motion, W.
w. Danenhower was added to the
committee.
The motion to make the propos-
ed club a permanent one was adopt
ed amid much applause. The dis
cussion that was brought forth by
the resolution made known the fact
that plenty of money was at com
mand, and that the ulteriOr object
was to establish a club house, and
to effect an organization that would
be equal if not supeBior to the Un-
ion League clubs of New York city
and Philadelphia.
Mr.. E. w. Fox suggested that
the headquarters for the club be
obtained at once, and that name
be given the organization which
would arouse Republican sympathy
for the club.
The motion to adopt a name was
postponed until the next meeting.
The absence of representative
colored men from the meeting was
alluded to, and it was stated that
invitations had been sent to sever.
al, but they failed to respond.
A vote of thanks was extended
to Mr.. Roessle, the proprietor of
the Arlington, for the courtesies
he had bestowed upon the gentle
men calling the meeting. During
the evening the following dispatch
was received by Mr.. E. w. Fox,
dated Philadelphia: 81 indOrse
| aud will co operate in the move
ment for the organization of a Re-
publican club. l regret that 1 can
not be present at the meeting to-
night Signed Greene B. Baum.
Kind words were also received
from many leading Republican SEN
atOrs and members of the House of
Representatives indorsing the
movement and offering such aid
as will be found necessary. The
meeting proved to very successful,
and the happy speech of Mr.. Simon
Wolfe, indorsing the formation of
the club and it's objects, met with
an outburse Of approval. The
| strong logic used and the language
in which it was expressed awaken
ed old Republican enthusiasm and
gave great impetus to the purpos-
es in view. The men participating
and the zsaI manifested are good
indications that a powerful and in
6ueatial Republican club will be
established in this city.-''Nation-

THE WATERS UNION,

There is an organization in this
city known as the Walters Union
There are two branches to this
organization, numbers one and
two. Mr.. j. S. Saunders, is pres
ident of one and Mr.. J. E. Nor
gan is president of the other.
These two organizations are COM
posed of a class of fneyo men.
The public will be surprised to
know that there are men connect
ed with 9th f the e crganiza-
tons who ale highly educated,
but ,ircums s'a.cts prohibited
them fon obtaining employ
ment commensurate with their
ability. No wllhsta Ding this
fact they are doing everything t.
advance the interest OF their fel-
low man. We unders. aud that
a movement is on foot to estab-
lish a labor bureau. We hope
that they will be successful in the
attempt and we assure them that
they shall have the undivided
support of the BEE in all they do
In the advancement of the craft.

it may be; the laboring
man is the substance of any state

WHAT OUR HIGH SCHOOL DOES.
Ex recorder James G. Matthews
of Albany, was in New York city
this week attending a meeting of
the democratic state committee of
which he is q member. Of course
Mr.. Matthews is opposed to tho
election of Col. Fred. Grant.
What the opposition to Col. Graft
Is in New York we are unable to
state, but, if he, which is a fact,
said that no Negro should gradu-
ate from West Point, while he
was a cadet there, he does not de-
serve the support otthe colored
voters in the state of New York,
and Mr.. Matthews is right to op
ose his election and defeat HIM
If he can. The Pine Bluff Repu5-
hcaa of Ark, sensiably says:
We do not like those who are always
ready 10 take the hammer of cOntlemna-
tion and pelt away on the head of the
Negro, aud if Mr.. Grant was opposed
and is still opposed to the military edu-
cation of military cadets at West Point we
do not see how he expects to get the
Negro vote, in his state, but we will wait
until he makes it known that he wants
the Negro vote.
